with this kind of gloss, the only thing that would help would be a dulling spray that would dull the shine for a short moment.
the light source is a 4'x3' softbox, about a foot away, the further you go away the smaller the light dot would be but also the light would be harsher.
bouncing off my walls wouldnt work since the room is too big and no lights would show my living room lights.

I just gave up and did what it is, shiny and bright. usually with poly not a big deal.

I received my shipment today, I bought a few PL compounds and Wheel for lacquer/plastic and all I can say is WOW..........let me repeat this.....WOW. I buffed the lacquered pieces I posted here and I can't believe how easy it was to get to a perfect finish. I am blown away and in awe of the finish it leaves behind. I have never really buffed out pieces by hand, well once I did and ended up with a satin finish. this PL compound is just leaving it like glass and removes all the little blemishes and spots no matter how good my finish was, it's just simply better now.

so if you ever wonder how you can get a perfect rubbed out lacquer finish, look no further.

WOW, I returned to see your back posting again. I have always thought about how well you turn your bowls and vessels. Now I am getting a small pen late I had to look up some of the old postings of your just to see some of the great work you have done. I also looked you up on pbase.
Hope to be able to tap into your wealth of knowledge.
